Moloch – Installation

Installation of Moloch is no trivial matter, that is why we have prepared this guide on how to set up the system in cloud environment. The server obtains an IP address dynamically through DHCP, therefore no editing of the interface configuration file is required.

The following commands will install other necessary files for capture host and configure the listening interface of the system. When asked whether to install Elasticsearch choose no, since you have already installed Elasticsearch earlier and this script offers only the demo version.

make install
make config

Go to the Viewer directory, update Node.js and run account creation script.
